Coats of arms pages
Sorry, I have no idea what you wanted to achieve by creating those three pages. I've deleted them, of course. But why did you create them in the first place? Fut.Perf. ☼ 22:25, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

I didn't create them - they were listed under Australian Stubs Efgardiner 22:27, 9 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Ah, now I understand :-)) You mean the red links on this template page? Template:Australian coat of arms? The fact that the links were red actually meant that the pages didn't exist, you only brought them into existence when you followed the links and then wrote your deletion notice. The solution is to just remove the links from the template itself, which I now did. Better? Fut.Perf. ☼ 22:40, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

D&D wiki project consensus
A call to all members of the D&D wiki project. We are currently having a major dispute that needs to be settled by all members of the D&D wiki project. The dispute is as follows. 1. Should we put disambiguation tags on D&D articles preemptively or should we wait until there is an article conflict with some other Wikipedia article. Vote on preemptive or wait.

2. What should we label these tags? Example "child's play (module)", or "child's play (adventure)" and at this point we are taking all suggestions.

New Challenge for Oceania and Australia
Hi, WikiProject Oceania/The 10,000 Challenge and WikiProject Australia/The 5000 Challenge are up and running based on The 10,000 Challenge which has currently produced over 2300 article improvements and creations. The Australia challenge would feed into the wider region one and potentially New Zealand could have a smaller challenge too. The main goal is content improvement, tackling stale old stubs and important content and improving sourcing/making more consistent but new articles are also welcome if sourced. I understand that this is a big goal for regular editors, especially being summertime where you are, but if you'd like to see large scale quality improvements happening for Oceania and Australia like The Africa Destubathon, which has produced over 1700 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for the region but fuelled by a series of contests to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. The Africa contest scaled worldwide would naturally provide great benefits to Oceania countries, particularly Australia and attract new editors. I would like some support from existing editors here to get the Challenges off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile and potentially bring about hundreds of improvements in a few weeks through a contest!
